Icons need to be controlled at the pixel level, colors, perspective and antialiasing are best created from scratch in 2D. Working in 2D might seem harder at first but trust me, you don't want to leave the shading in the hands of a 3D package. Manuel, I think 3D applications should not be used for icons.

I'm designing icons for an Android app right now, though, so they might give me insights. Stay tuned.

Sono un pò ambiziosa... e con la testa dura.... e sono riuscita ad ottenere il risultato che volevo. Non sono riuscita però a agire sul livello... non mi veniva... mi veniva bianco.... così ho selezionato, copia elementi uniti, incolla...e voilà! :-) Beh, tu stai suggerendo ad una persona che apre per la prima volta PSD!!!!

Tutto qui?! Che imbranata! Ti spiego: ho fatto la lente, l'ho messa sopra una foto creando 2 tracciati (uno di ritaglio, e l'altro delle selezione della lente). Qui dovrei eliminarla per vedere sotto... ho sbagliato? Per lavorare sul layer, dovrei prendere la m. glass di partenza prima di portarla sulla foto, giusto? E lì diminuire l'opacità? Grazieee!!!
